@claudia_berresfordStyle Notes: As someone who is always cold, I know the antidote lies in layering—this is what makes this outfit idea so genius. Take one of the many beautiful oversized dresses out there. The fluid silhouette will mean you can wear a thermal vest or bodysuit underneath and no one will be any wiser. In my opinion, you can’t fault this Uniqlo Heattech top.

Style Notes: Winter doesn't mean you have to hide behind chunky outerwear. Instead, make long-sleeve dresses your go-to for any occasion, weddings included. Chances are you won't have to spend much time outside anyway, but the long sleeves will give you that little extra defence from the elements. Applying that same logic, we also recommend opting for a style that falls below the knee.
The mix of velvet and silk make this perfect for cooler wedding days.
The eye-catching rose silhouette will ensure you make an entrance.

Style Notes: Trousers present a chic alternative to typical wedding guest dresses. For a winter service, we suggest choosing a wide-leg pair in a pretty satin fabric for a chic look that's also season-appropriate.

@camillecharriereStyle Notes: In winter, make use of the gorgeous weighty textures on offer—velvet is my favourite for wearing for special occasions.
If there were ever a time for an embellished bag, its a wedding.

@abimarvelStyle Notes: Few occasions call for a formal maxi-length dress, so when they present themselves, I advise embracing it. Again, the longer length will prove crucial when the temperatures plummet.

Style Notes: Brides aren't the only ones optioning for suits at weddings these days—in fact, they're fast becoming more popular amongst guests, too. In winter, they're a no-brainer, as they'll inevitably keep you warmer than any floaty dress ever could.

@naomielizeeStyle Notes: Knitwear might not be the first thing you think of when it comes to styling a wedding guest outfit, but there are so many dresses in knitted fabrications right now that are legitimately polished it’s now perfectly acceptable to wear them to weddings.
If you’re still on the fence, use fabulous accessories to elevate them further.

@styleidealistStyle Notes: Take a piece from each of the aforementioned sections—long sleeves, trousers, satin—and what do you get? Karina's chic jumpsuit look. Simply round off your ensemble with an on-trend beaded bag, and you're good to go.

@nlmarilynWhen it comes to dressing for warmth, black fabrics are a reliable start. As black absorbs heat, your LBD will actually keep you warm by transmitting the heat to your skin. The long sleeves and high neckline on this 16Arlington midi won't hurt, either. Add colourful accessories into the mix to lighten the look for celebrations.
